Screw Slide Phones

My phone has had it. I noticed this morning that I couldn't dial out or recieve calls. Basically not only is my display flipped but the whole left side (the buttons) on the main face don't function. Pretty frustrating so I need to get it fixed for sure now. Gloria has been nice enough to offer to lend me a phone. She has really come through for me this last month. I was lucky because Ada happened to be on MSN in the morning so I just asked her to make the arrangements for me. Tai Koo Shing, infront of Esprit at 3. Everything worked out as planned and we met up, went and grabbed some McDonalds and then wandered around a bit. Gloria pointed out her old ex-boyfriend to me. My opinion? None really he looks pretty ordinary from the outside. Just another HKer working at the local Futurshop like store. Sorry Gloria, I'm sure he was a swell guy until you guys broke up. Forget him.

We went over to Gay Giano to pick up my suit. That cutie Joey was working again, lucky me. Tried on the suit and took a few more pictures in the change room because the lighting is good in there. No good pictures this time though. Gloria picked up a top and we were done. I asked about a garment bag but the manger wouldn't give me one for a sale item. I'm going to try to drop by again another day and talk to Joey to see if I can pick something up. I was walking around the mall with almost $2100 HKD worth in my shopping bag when oh! I noticed the mall has a Lacoste. Sale items at Lacoste, pretty tempting and I made the mistake of going in. Basically Gloria isn't a lot of help, I know now not to go shopping with her if all intend to do is window shopping. I tried on about 6 polos and they all work for me. Gloria really likes this strong red polo that was being displayed in the front, of course one of the more expensive of the choices. I picked out one that I thought was a good deal and Gloria just keep adding the red one into my purchase ("Oh the blue stripped one is nice, so take that and the red one, oh this one is nice, take this and the red one...") so basically I walked away with another 2 polos from Lacoste. $3000 HKD right there, crazy shopping as Ada would say. I needed a basic garmant bag and a hanger for my suit so we dropped by UNY and picked up a hanger for $45 HKD (expensive for this piece of plastic) and a cheap garmant bag for about $12 HKD. I had to meet up with Ada afterwards, to save me from the crazy shopping, we went out for McDonalds again then I took off because I had a previous engagement with Ah Mun. She mentioned she has had some arguments at home and wanted to stay out later, didn't want to go home so we headed back to hang out at my place. We met up with Ada quickly in the MTR to pick up the new phone that Gloria lent me and then hung out in my room to relieve the tension we both had this week.
